Pre-Submission

The 'Pre Submission' version of the Local Plan Part 1 - Joint Core Strategy is a formal stage of producing the Joint Core Strategy and is required under Regulation 27 of the Town and Country Planning Regulations 2004 (as amended).

The consultation on the Pre-Submission Joint Core Strategy ran from 25 January 2012 until 5pm on the 12 March 2012.

Copies of all the documents are free to download. However, if you wish to buy a paper copy of the main Winchester District Local Plan Part 1 - Joint Core Strategy document, you can do so via our Customer Service Centre at a cost of £25 (CD included). Alternatively you can buy a copy of the CD alone, for £2.

Next steps

We are now acknowledging all the representations received and these will be able to view on this webpage shortly. Due to the volume of representations received this may take some time.

During June the Joint Core Strategy, supporting documents, Sustainability Appraisal and the key issues raised through the consultation and how they have been addressed in the DPD will be submitted to the Secretary of State (this is called the 'Submission' stage). It will then be examined by a Planning Inspector who will consider whether it complies with legal requirements and is 'sound'.
